It's becoming more of a trend at LTA studios that
I've been programming the show's discussions based on the suggestions of my
co-presenters, rather than finding a mutually loved record. So it goes with
episode 52. Wasn't shore whether to call the show Portis Attack or Massive Head!!!

I am
joined by John Ross, the manager of the wonderful Facebook page "Feed My
Ears", and Shooting the Shit regular, Tim Merrill to discuss
Portishead's "Dummy" and Massive Attack's "Mezzanine" - two
albums I never thought I'd be talking about on this podcast. I confess the
whole trip hop movement passed me by in the nineties, but I am truly grateful
to John Ross for telling me to get out of my musical comfort zone and discuss
these two records. I think we had a fascinating conversation as we touched
upon issues such as whether sometimes music has to have a context to appeal, or
whether the music itself evokes images. Record scratching aside, was Dummy just
a traditional pop or soul record with nineties production values? What
did we actually think of these records - do we love those albums? Tune in and
find out.

Eric
Reanimator once again contributes his segment more to discuss a band he loves
rather than a specific album. This time around he talks about Sky Cries Mary, a
perfect companion piece to this episode's albums.

If you’ve been enjoying the show, please pass the
word that the show exists to your music loving friends. I'd love to expand the audience a little and hopefully, the range of albums discussed can appeal to more folks. Write an iTunes review if you feel so inclined.….any kindness will be gratefully appreciated.
